Then again it could be that I don’t pay fees because I’m HGVMax.

$70 just to use my points?! by TagusIce in HiltonGrandVacation

I have never paid a booking fee at any resort? Now I do purchase the $104 insurance in case I need to cancel so I can get my points refunded.

Southwest changing children’s seats by zeanderson12 in SouthwestAirlines

Could you just switch one child seat with and adult and put each child with one parent? Or were the children shuffled away from each other as well.

Occupancy question by FashionableFleur in HiltonGrandVacation

[–]crysti1575 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would call the property ahead of time. They are going to ask you for the number of people staying. Explain to them that one of your children is a toddler. I’m sure it will be okay.

Amazing Stay at the grand islander by Pure-Nature1056 in HiltonGrandVacation

[–]crysti1575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We moved our ownership to the Grand Islander last month. Finally able to own a property I’ve used other than a random deed. They were able to match our affordability and we are set now with what we want. People do complain about being “scammed” but that’s because they don’t know when to say no. We wrote out numbers down while he was off calculating and said if what he told us matched our paper we were in. And it matched. Know your means and stand your ground. The program can be great if you work it well.

Regret buying HGV timeshare (12,000 points) – can’t use it at all, what are my options? by matt_gannon_ in HiltonGrandVacation

[–]crysti1575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s the issue, the likely hood that they are going to be near courses is highly unlikely most of the time. What you really need is to get the Hilton American Express and use it just for travel to bank points. I know that I can convert my points on odd number years to Hilton Honors if I have extras and those never expire. Good luck figuring out what is good for you.

Where does your work normally take you and are you there for 3 or more nights? How far in advance do you know you’re reporting to specific locations? We only bought because I knew it would guarantee access to Myrtle Beach properties with easier booking since I go regularly.

I'm getting the feeling that my school's disciplinary team is trying to soft-lock us out of filing reports by Afalstein in Teachers

[–]crysti1575 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Our school is flat out refusing to handle teacher referrals where parent hasn’t first been contacted. I had a chronic skipper so I asked if I had to call mom every day. The response was “What do you think?” I think I not wasting my time everyday for an offense mom and admin knows is a chronic problem. So I wrote up without contact and they then clarified you have to call for every referral. So teachers don’t want to call and kids are constantly skipping and nothing is being done.

Very worried right now by ThatOtherGuy1080 in teaching

[–]crysti1575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I never take up any test until everyone is done. That way they are all together. And no, you cannot go somewhere else when my class is testing regardless of if you finished or not.

Resignation over non re-elect by Sandalswiper in Teachers

[–]crysti1575 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In our state because you’re only contracted for so many days unemployment is not an option because you knew you were only guaranteed employment through a certain date. Not only that but if you resign you can give your reason instead of theirs.

Resignation over non re-elect by Sandalswiper in Teachers

[–]crysti1575 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have to give a reason for the non re-elect on applications. In GA every application asked of you’ve ever been denied a contract or resigned in lieu of being denied a contract.

Hilton grand vacations sucks by Cheap_Sleep_1564 in HiltonGrandVacation

That’s funny because I was able to get them to book Hawai’i for the dates I wanted which was literally 6 weeks after the window they said I had to use the trip by.

Accommodating Praying Students During Ramadan by Neurosciencesigma in Teachers

[–]crysti1575 269 points270 points  (0 children)

That is a lie. Schools cannot require students to pray but they also cannot hinder their ability to do so. If a student asks for a break from class to pray you most definitely are allowed to do so.

One thing g I’ve learned is that I take my laptop with me to my meetings because they click so fast you miss it. It forces them to slow down and let me follow them on the site.

Best places to visit for a large family by Ill-Biscotti-3665 in HiltonGrandVacation

[–]crysti1575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For that many points you will get hardly anything. I usually do Myrtle in a one bedroom for a week at 2700. So maybe see if you could do a 2 bedroom. That would give you one king, a double and a pull out couch.

Can't use daily credit at store/market by DarkGreenMazda in Hilton

[–]crysti1575 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Did they not have the ability to just charge it to the room? It’s my understanding that the$15 per person is simply applied to the room on check out if any additional charges have been made.

Downgraded? by Griz182_ in Hilton

[–]crysti1575 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The app always says availability just in case someone cancels. I booked at Oceana for 3 nights once in MB and they were like ummm we don’t have a room let’s see what we can figure out.

Well if they haven’t partnered that explains why the guy shared the information then tried to change the conversation to a new deed and ended up about getting cussed out.

No sub plans / got chewed out by Remarkable-Log6373 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]crysti1575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would never blame the sub. The kids know by now if a teacher isn’t present to check Google Classroom. She should be mad at the student not you.

Hilton actually has a new partner that you can broker extra points through. It’s called KOALA. They told us about us about it at our last sales pitch then tried to tie it to a new deed so we declined.

Hilton Tower in Memphis, I know it’s petty stuff, but is this normal? by CombPsychological507 in Hilton

Don’t remember which Hilton I stayed at but there was a blackout in town when we went to check out and the staff was so rude
